Plage du Moulin, Sand beach in Binic-Étables-sur-Mer, France
Plage du Moulin stretches along Saint-Brieuc bay with fine sand and gentle slopes leading into the clear waters of the English Channel. The gradual descent creates wide sandy areas that expand noticeably at low tide.
The name comes from windmills that operated near the beach during the 19th century, processing grain for local communities. These mills have become part of the place's cultural memory.
The beach serves as a gathering point for summer festivals where local residents showcase regional food, music, and maritime traditions. These celebrations reflect the community's deep connection to the sea and its heritage as a port town.
Dedicated parking spaces and modern facilities including restrooms, showers, and first aid are available near the main entrance. Check tide times before your visit to make the most of the beach's natural rhythms and conditions.
A natural freshwater stream crosses the beach, creating shallow pools where children search for small crabs and shells. These pools are one of the most enjoyable features for families exploring the shore.
